Other delayed somewhat. </p> <p>e.g.<br /> Roseburn-Canal goes from Nov/20 - Nov/22 to Sep/20 - Mar/22<br /> West Edinburgh Link goes from Sep/21 Mar/24 to Oct/21 Dec/22 </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20070#post-322019 Tue, 04 Feb 2020 19:05:33 +0000 toomanybikes 322019@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I think I found it, although there may have been a more recent one..

Yet again, it looks like no significant new cycle infrastructure will be opened in the city this year - although there are a couple upgrades to existing facilities and some new toucans etc. on Quiet Routes. </p> <p>I see Meadows-Canal is listed as "concept design" and now due to be built between April 2021 and September 2021. </p>
